It is frustrating, as a single man, to message a woman who is showing as being online. By the time the message has been sent, the other person/couple has logged off. When they come back online, the message I've sent is bottom of the pile. Most recent messages show at the top. So there's a good chance my message has been buried or will go missing (drop of the screen). Invariably it won't be read.

Anyone else get frustrated by this?

Yep, it's ridiculous that mails aren't received chronologically on here, the current system is like walking into a bank and going straight to the front of the queue.

Tbh mate the little black avatar will get your message ignored or deleted far more often than being bottom of the pile.

Stick something there anything (aside from your cock) is better than nothing

ladies on here get inundated with messages, so even if you were at the top of their message list, what makes you think they will respond?

Nope, I have a busy mailbox and do try to read all messages.

But I check profiles before I read them, so if a profile doesn't appeal, message won't get read. Same goes for profile pics - they don't appeal, message gets deleted. Its part of my selection/filter process.

If it was oldest first trying to have a conversation would be impossible as every new message you got from the person would be buried at the bottom of your list or on the other page. Forcing you to delete all you old messages just to continue the Convo you were having

Because I read their profiles and message accordingly. Ad for the bloke saying about avatar, I attach pics.

This post is NOT my saying people don't reply to me, simply that messages can get lost or Buried if we just miss someone.

IT IS A PROBLEM FOR ALL SINGLE MEN

Yeah but people look at the profile/avatar and often delete the message based on that won't have even seen your attached pics

But how do you know this is even a problem onky way you'd see it is from no reply or deleted without read and assuming this is the reason when it could be any number of things profile being top of the list

I delete my sent messages as soon as sent, no point stressing about what the recipient has done with them, you'll either get a reply or you won't.

Yes and? They may have done what many do loomed at your profile and decided they didn't like or are just ignoring all the blackheads and you'll get cleared out in the next bulk delete or just left forgotten on the back pages.

It doesn't mean they haven't seen your message just they weren't interested.

If your worried about being id just pic a body part bum/torso/up close eye shot and use that having a picture there makes you unique in a list of 20 messages with 19 black heads and 1 with an avatar they're the one you'll remember

also it makes it easier to recognise your future messages

Right so in a system where older messages show up first think how could you possibly have a conversation?

Your new message would turn up on the last page of all her unread messages. So she'd potential have to delete hundreds just to read your reply.

Thing is how one person runs there profile is there way and not everyone's choice.

Its like some putting milk in their coffee before the water (for example)

If a person wants to get back to you they will (doest matter if they are on-line or off line to be honest)

I look at all profiles, just don't read the messages if the profile doesn't suit. No point in reading the message really, if they aren't your type in the first place.

Exactly! Lol

I've yet to meet anyone that suffered this 'torment'. Most single guys we've met don't worry about this. When I had a single profile it didn't affect my enjoyment of the site. I've known women who's inboxes were bursting at the seams - yet they had simple mechanisms for sorting through (no avatar/cock avatar = delete, no veri's, wrong location etc).

You never hear from single guys that meet regularly, have well crafted profiles and who have patience, complaining that their messages are getting lost.

Maybe - just maybe theirs stand out and draw interest. (Profile, message title, avatar, first visible line etc.)

And those that seem to get lost are in fact sat at the top of the inbox. Unread. And pending deletion.

I get more responses by sending a pic for some reason.

Actually they often don't have a pic.

I recently had the opposite. I just missed a friend, who I'd promised I'd send a fantasy story to her. She enjoyed it a lot but it nearly got lost, swamped by a load of messages from people she was not interested in!!!!

And don't some of the ladies on here wonder, when they see a full inbox, that someone they've been interested in has messaged them and, by the time said lady logs on 24 hours later, the message has disappeared off the screen. She misses out. Bloke doesn't bother again. Who then?

Why message someone you can't see?

Why not concentrate on those you can clearly see are 'to you taste'?

If a woman is interested - she'll message you, surely?

Agreed. Having a profile pic also will make you stand out in a sea of messages.

Not really if we are chatting to someone we don't want to scroll to the bottom every time to continue it would just frustrate people with all the messages for nobs being in the way.

Perhaps admin could introduce a "priority" inbox so that anyone on a priority list (friends, those on hotlist) have their messages posted in a different folder, thus avoiding some of the issues above? I recently messaged a friend who is keen to meet yet three messages were never read by her. Many more and I've though she was no longer keen. Spoke again on Sunday and she is still very keen. Just hadn't seen the other, buried, missing messages

Sounds like someone needs to manage their inbox better.

And I'd recommend stumping up for site supporter status as the whole message thread appears in each message.

This subject comes around often. Always started by single guys. I've yet to hear a couple or woman state that they lost track of someone 'looking to meet' due to a busy inbox.

Those that want to keep in touch - will.

Those that sit watching their sent box waiting for a message to be opened or responded to better have a hell of a lot of free time in their hands!!

It often seems to be the cry of those not getting the responses they want that it's purely down to a busy inbox.

After all - it couldn't possibly be anything else now could it?

Many women have just given you advice on what would make them read your message, yet you still seam obsessed with the idea your messages are going unread is because there are holds of men they don't want to meet crowding our your messages and how the site should be changed to prevent this.

Also your "friend" seems to be trying to politely brush you off no offence.

Right because it's like your email folder.

Let's say a woman has a full front page of messages your sis at the top

She reads it likes you says a cheeky hey how's you back and sits awaiting your reply.

You read her reply and go oo la la and write out your best smooth talk and click that big ol send button.

She's sat there looking at her inbox . ...

Still sat there....

Oh wait that's right she can't see your reply as it's on the back page

She assumes you never replied blocks your profile and moves on.

You start a thread whining about how your messages always go to the back of the queue.

Your logic is fundamentally flawed!

Just because your message arrives first doesn't mean that it's of better quality, more interesting or actually going to be of more relevance than any other message sat waiting to be read. Be it a month old or 5 minutes!

What if the oldest is from the "Fancy a fuck?" Brigade and the most recent from someone you deeply fancy?

If we were that interested in someone - we'd message them, wait til the responded - and take it from there.

Rather than blame a messaging system that seems to work for 99% of the site and has done so for many a year.

And if someone is that good a friend? We'd have their phone number!!

The reason written messages come newest first is so you can physical have a conversation if they came in last you could never ever have a conversation without deleted all your messages including the ones from the co versatile your having ad an when it got long enough to fill your page.

There is a reason all email services and instant messenger a are laid out like this.

If you have her phone number why the hell are you annoyed she's missing your messages on here text her or ring her.

Good lord it's like your physicaly trying to make it hard for yourself

"The reason written messages come newest first is so you can physical have a conversation if they came in last you could never ever have a conversation without deleted all your messages including the ones from the co versatile your having ad an when it got long enough to fill your page.

There is a reason all email services and instant messenger a are laid out like this."

Forgive me. I was making a general point and looking for a solution, is all. Nothing to do with my avatar or content of my own messages.

I still think an extra folder where friends, those on a hotlist could be shown, with contacts from people you don't know go to the ordinary inbox might help.

Whichever way you look at it, women and couples can, and will, miss messages from single men they'd be interested in. Least it seems likely to me.

Was just a thought.

Thankfully sextbrain, at the top, understood what I meant

I've just copied this from a post from admin from

June 2013!

"We've made some changes to improve the inbox for everyone:

* more obvious what messages you have replied to; they are shaded out in the list

* more obvious which new messages are from people you have messaged previously (they are bright yellow)

* more obvious which new messages are from friends (they have smiley face friend icon and are in orange)

* new messages from people you've not contacted before and are not friends with are light yellow

We've also made some other cosmetic improvements to how the page is formatted for all users.

Feedback welcome

Admin x"

So if you've messaged someone before - it's clear.

If a message is from a friend - it's clear.

If it's a first message - it's clear!!

So a recipient of a message from a friend or someone you've already been messaging is easy to identify from new contacts. What you are claiming - that your messages are uniidentifiable from those sent by others - is wrong.

Short of admin providing everyone with a personal secretary to manage their inbox I really don't know what more they can do???

"Orange messages with a smiley face???? I'll keep my eyes open!"

I think you have to click on "new look inbox" for that although I could be wrong.
